Lewis Hamilton topped the times for Mercedes ahead of Renault's Esteban Ocon as Sebastian Vettel slumped to 20th and last for Ferrari in Saturday ...

The championship leader and defending six-time champion clocked a fastest lap in one minute and 43.255 seconds to outpace Ocon by two-tenths as the session produced an unexpected result.Hamilton's 'black arrows' team-mate Valtteri Bottas was down in fifth place, separated from the Briton by Ocon, Lando Norris of McLaren in third and Alex Albon of Red Bull.
Most remarkably, last year's race winner Charles Leclerc and his Ferrari team-mate Vettel, the 2018 winner, wound up in 17th and 20th places - an outcome that created the prospect of both Ferraris, struggling with basic performance as well as tyre problems, failing to progress from Q1 in qualifying later on Saturday.
When the rest joined the fray, Norris, Albon, Hamilton and Bottas successively took over from Kevin Magnussen on top of the times, all improving their laps in a bid to beat the threatened rain.
